Sustainable Food & Fibre Futures
Sustainable Food & Fibre Futures invests to grow New Zealand's food and fibre sectors sustainably and support a thriving economy.
We're launching in October
We are developing Sustainable Food & Fibre Futures now, so that it is ready for applications from October.
We've got a lot of experience and expertise from our many years of operating the Sustainable Farming Fund (SFF) and the Primary Growth Partnership (PGP), so we're starting from a good foundation.
We're taking the best of both SFF and PGP
The new Sustainable Food & Fibre Futures lets us take the best of the Ministry for Primary Industries' flagship investment programmes – SFF and PGP – and create a new future-focused programme.
The broad areas we will be investing in
We'll expect applications for investment from Sustainable Food & Fibre Futures to focus on:
- demonstrating or delivering economic, social, cultural and environmental benefits
- prioritising product value over volume
- collaboration and greater information sharing.
